Processing, characterisation and oxidation resistance of βNiAl bond coat: Al and Zr effects

Platinum-modified-βNiAl is a bond coat (BC) material for thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) applications applied on aeroengine hardware to reduce their surface temperatures. However, it is desirable to minimize its production and material costs by the low-cost alternatives of similar performance. It ha...

Processing, characterisation and oxidation resistance of βNiAl bond coat: Al and Zr effects
description Platinum-modified-βNiAl is a bond coat (BC) material for thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) applications applied on aeroengine hardware to reduce their surface temperatures. However, it is desirable to minimize its production and material costs by the low-cost alternatives of similar performance. It has been acknowledged that the small concentration of the reactive elements (REs), such as Zr, Hf, and Y, could tremendously enhance the oxide adhesion even in some cases better than Pt modified counterparts. The aim of this study was to design and fabricate the Zr-modified-βNiAl bond coat on CMSX-4 superalloy using an aluminizing method. Moreover, the study focused on the development of a systematic understanding of underlying mechanisms behind the beneficial effects of REs. Initially, three sets of BCs were prepared: Zr-free βNiAl (undoped), Al and Zr co-deposited in a single-step process (1SP), and Zr and Al, which were individually deposited in two processing steps (2SP): zirconizing and aluminizing.
